Amazon Pharmacy: what customers say

Most reviews are negative. Reviewers most often describe long waits on chat and phone support and issues that never get resolved, along with orders arriving late, missing items, or containing the wrong medication. Several former PillPack customers report problems after their accounts moved to Amazon Pharmacy, and some mention trouble with refills and prescription transfers. The smaller group of positive reviewers mention fast delivery, competitive prices and convenient online ordering.

BlueChew: what customers say

Reviewers most often praise how quick BlueChew is to sign up for and reorder, its discreet packaging, and that the chewable tablets work reliably for them. Complaints center on the taste and blue staining, side effects such as headaches and flushing, pricing, delivery mix-ups, and difficulty getting refunds or help from customer service. The company doesn't appear to reply to negative reviews on Trustpilot.
